ABC’s Castle is one of the breeziest and most ingratiating of all the network procedurals, and its fifth season has turned out to be its strongest one yet. A terrific collection of baffling mysteries, some plotted with a comic bent and others done in utter seriousness, Castle has also managed this season to walk a wonderfully fine line between plot and personal relationships now that the powers-that-be have involved its two leading players in a serious romance. The infamous Moonlighting curse has not affected this show one whit as the interpersonal relationships continue as strongly as ever, and the show is now so invested in its characters that their well being becomes the focus of quite a few of the episodes ultimately making for incredibly gripping viewing.
